brazil is creepy
>>87813036
How were Brazilian kids not scared of this?
>>87812788
I don't remember much, but I did watch this as a kid. My dad constantly compared it with a ballsack obviously.
>>87813626
He's not far wrong. How did he get past the first design phase?
>>87813652
I don't think anyone bothered with that.
>>87812788
He was a T.V host from Brasil. There is a lot of urban legends about him. In the 90's there were rumors that his doll had a knife inside it which induced kids to commit suicide.
Most of these rumors are due the fact he has some barely similarities with Chucky
Fun fact: He died last month
>>87813036
very creepy

Son, let me tell you about the wonders of Brazil...
>>87813573
We kinda were. But is voice was warm and his attittude was happy and nice. He was like a less retarded and more energetic Barney.
>>87813573
A lot of them were, I never cared for it personally, always thought it looked weird as fuck.
It's just a mascot used to sell toys and other crap for children.
>>87812788
That looks like the mascot for the Good Guy dolls.
Kid shows in Brazil had three things:
Hot women barely clothed.
Horrifying talking mascots.
Music guests singing inappropriate music.
>>87812788
Google Fofão.
He was also Patropi, from Raimundo´s Classroom.
Mfw my fucking childhood.

Didn't the Simpsons make a joke about that?
>>87814444
checked.
Yup, they did, but too late - it was already the millenium, this shit was common during the 80s/90s.

Long story : Comedian/Plastic artist Orival Pessini invented "Fofão", something like Mr. Puffy in english, a half-man, half-dog alien from another planet. The reason was to entertain kids, since his others numbers were mostly for adults or at least not that innocent. Turned surprisingly a big hit in the 80's, having toys, albums, candy and even videogames.
Short story : Just like tweens nowadays pretend they all have fear of clowns, reacting in exaggerated ways to anything clown-related. Recently on Brazil it became cool to hate Fofão, or to invent some stupid story about his dolls and demonic possessions. Mostly probably never had the said dolls or went to his shows, considering their age.

Recently? Its been almost 2 decades since those stories were popular, bro.
Fofão these days is best known for climbing walls like a pro.
watch this, tell me this isnt fucking great

Don't know about the Brazilian show, but it's a parody of the same doll that Clarence made fun of.
>>87816059
Just search for retarded vloggers/youtubers talking about Fofão. It never stops. Every single one of them have a 101% legit story, complete with obnoxious overreacting and epileptic edition skills
Fofão used to be part of a urban legend, now he is a shitty meme

GAH!
